Manipulative Minds

Yesterday, I was involved in a meeting between sales reps to try to work out a few issues caused by, uh, conflicting sales styles. At one point, I threw all tact and diplomacy aside and decided to just get to the heart of the matter. So I said, "Look John*, you're trying to manipulate me and Mary. Just don't do it." And he actually seemed surprised that I'd caught on to it.

He's got some cajones trying to manipulate a couple of girls. That's what we do, sir.

*not their real names
